First and foremost, it is an awesome phone with just one problem, 16 GB internal memory. If can do with that, just go for it.nnBut if it is awesome, why am I giving this 1 star review.nnThis has to do with the Flipkart return and refund policy and the "might be" inferior product product supply they offer. nPurchased this phone in May,got a faulty one, so applied for a replacement piece. The device was then PICKED UP by Flipkart on 30 July, and kept the replacement on hold. Each time I made a phone call, I was given a 24 to 48 hour deadline to "resolve" the issue. nAfter 20 days, I receive the news that the replacement has been cancelled and I will receive the refund for my purchase.nnAnd here is the most interesting part that I was told by the executive: nnFlipkart will initiate a refund after 4-5 days of picking up the product. Quite interestingly, the product they are refering to has ALREADY been picked 20 days ago. (Most probably they have got a time machine)nNevertheless, when I provide the proof of the pickup ; the reciept of courier pickup and the email from a Flipkart executive confirming their reception of product, I am told that their system is not showing any update in that regard and they have to confirm it from their warehouse which will again take their golden ratio of 24-48 hours. nnThank you Flipkart for such an awesome service.
No games, no web surfing still heating to extent that I can't hold it near my ear. nI used the phone for 10 mins going through settings of phone and it heat up considerably. All this when I am 'balanced' battery profile, not even "performance". nMr Hugo, what's the point of all these specs if you cant hold the phone in your hand or keep in the pocket because one would have to visit doctor for treating burns. nnMany now have reported heating issue. DO SOMETHING XIAOMI.nn**Update**nAfter a few software updates, the thermal profile of the phone is able to keep the temperature lower and handling has improved.
